The space and weight constraints resulting from the size of the animals have led to simple but functional approaches for vocalization classification and position estimation. For the resulting data we have developed novel, delay-tolerant routing and collection strategies. These are expected to be used in a sparse, dynamic network resulting from various rats being tagged with our nodes and running around freely - an area that will eventually be too big to be covered solely by stationary data sinks. Furthermore, the system is designed to extract information on the social interactions between animals from the routing data. It currently works in an indoor environment and we are preparing it for tests in a controlled outdoor setup.}, tags = {RatPack}, url = {fileadmin/papers/2008/2008-10-Thiele-Sensors08-RatPack.pdf}, web_url2 = {http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=4716540}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York City, NY, USA}, booktitle = {Proceedings of IEEE Sensors 2008, Lecce, Italy}, organization = {IEEE}, event_place = {Lecce, Italy}, event_name = {IEEE Sensors 2008}, event_date = {26-29 Oct. 2008}, language = {en}, ISBN = {978-1-4244-2580-8}, ISSN = {1930-0395}, DOI = {10.1109/ICSENS.2008.4716540}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Thiele, Johannes and Osechas, Okuary and Bitsch Link, J{\'o} Agila and Wehrle, Klaus} } @Inproceedings { 200808OsechasEMBC08RatPack, title = {Ratpack: Wearable Sensor Networks for Animal Observation}, year = {2008}, month = {8}, day = {20}, pages = {538--541}, abstract = {The goal of our project is to describe the behavior of rats. For this purpose we are using wireless sensor networks, monitoring various quantities that yield important information to complement current knowledge on the behavioral repertoire of rats. So far, on the sensing and processing side we have developed innovative, minimalist approaches pointing in two directions: vocalization analysis and movement tracking. On the data collection and routing side we have adapted to the known burrowing habits of rats by developing new methods for synchronization and data aggregation under the paradigm of sporadic connectivity in a sparse, dynamic network.}, keywords = {Animals;Behavior, Animal;Clothing;Equipment Design;Equipment Failure Analysis;Miniaturization;Monitoring, Ambulatory;Rats;Reproducibility of Results;Sensitivity and Specificity;Transducers;}, tags = {ratpack}, url = {fileadmin/papers/2008/2008-08-Osechas-EMBC08-RatPack.pdf}, web_url2 = {http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=4649209}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {The Printing House}, address = {Stoughton, WI, USA}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 30th Annual International IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Conference, Vancouver, BC, Canada}, organization = {IEEE EMBS}, event_place = {Vancouver, BC, Canada}, event_name = {Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2008.

So far the distribution of load, caused by the players in these games, is not distributed dynamically. After the launch of a new game, the introduction of new content, during special ingame events, or also during normal operations, players tend to concentrate in certain regions of the game worlds and cause overload conditions. Therefore we propose the use of structured P2P technology for the server infrastructure of the MMOGs to improve the reliability and scalability. Previous work segmented the game work into rectangular areas; however this approach often split a group of players to different servers, causing additional overhead. This work presents a cluster-based Peer-to-Peer approach, which can be used for load balancing in MMOGs or in other virtual worlds. The system is able to dynamically adapt to the current state of the game and handle uneven distributions of the players in the game world. We show through simulation, also with traces from real online games, that the cluster-based approach performs better than the previous P2P-based systems, which split the world in rectangular areas.}, affiliation = {RWTH Aachen University - Distributed Systems Group}, url = {http://www.pap.vs.uni-due.de/MMVE08/papers/proceedings.pdf}, web_url = {http://www.pap.vs.uni-due.de/MMVE08/}, misc2 = {Online}, editor = {Gregor Schiele, Daniel Weiskopf, Ben Leong, Shun-Yun Hu}, booktitle = {Proceedings of 1st International Workshop on Massively Multiuser Virtual Environments at IEEE Virtual Reality 2008 (MMVE 2008)}, event_place = {Reno, Nevada, USA}, event_name = {1st International Workshop on Massively Multiuser Virtual Environments at IEEE Virtual Reality 2008 (MMVE 2008)}, event_date = {March 8th, 2008}, language = {en}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Rieche, Simon and Wehrle, Klaus and Fouquet, Marc and Niedermayer, Heiko and Teifel, Timo and Carle, Georg} } @Article { 200812riecheIJAMCcluster, title = {Clustering Players for Load Balancing in Virtual Worlds}, journal = {International Journal of Advanced Media and Communication (IJAMC)}, year = {2008}, volume = {2}, number = {4}, pages = {351-363}, abstract = {In current Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs) the distribution of load is not distributed dynamically.
